2 loss Ole Miss with 2 close road losses is absolutely not a guarantee to be behind us. We want 0 - 1 loss SEC teams and 3+ loss SEC teams. 2 loss teams are our enemy.

My thought is that I think Oklahoma is a 3 loss team regardless. So I'd rather get Ole Miss in "don't screw up" territory now. Because history suggests that they might screw up.

Kiffin having the less mobile, backup QB be your short yardage specialist is a choice

Nah. Definitely want OU to win. Likely drops Ole Miss behind us and they simply don't have any other games this year that are really threatening. Whereas OU can win today and they still have 4 really tough games moving forward with Alabama, Tennessee, LSU and Missouri. Very likely they drop another 2 games out of those 4, at least.
I just want to get OU the eff outta there. The whole bird in a hand thing. There is no guarantee ole miss drops. Plus, hoping OU does some damage to some of those other teams after dropping behind us. If OU wins, I could totally see both being ranked ahead of us.

I don’t think OU is really good enough to do damage to other teams

Probably right, just one upset of those remaining 4 top 25 teams would be great. Anyway, think all of those teams still semisuck(besides bama).

Their offense is simply not good enough and their defense is elite to the point it can paper over that against good teams.

Basically if Oklahoma was able to pull off an upset vs bama, they could also theoretically win the rest of their games.....

True. But I think the odds of OU winning out vs. Bama, Tennessee, Missouri and LSU are far lower than Ole Miss winning out vs. South Carolina, Florida, the Citadel and Mississippi State, all of which are at home, except the Egg Bowl.

150+ yards rushing against this UVA team, pass for the 2 pointer to win and end up short.

Around this time every Saturday I love when my phone keeps dinging meaning cash. Next payday comes around 7 to 7:30.

It seems like a dumb business model to actively trash the coaches in the conference you cover. Sometimes Gameday is a little too sycophantic but it ensures continual access.

Mateer is incapable of hitting a in structure throw. Make him throw off platform scramble and it’s a dart

EDIT: well when it’s not a fumble

Ball is moving forward by a mile. I like McElroy but sometimes he says unconscionably stupid stuff.

funny how the Oklahoma QB went from being arguably the Heisman leader by many in sports media going into his injury to now stinking up football fields like today
